Definitely you can file case under domestic voilence act. You will get relief within 1 or 2 months. And if women is economically weak then certainly court will grant some amount to you on monthly basis to maintain you.

domestic voilence is a criminal case. and
divorce case is a civil nature.
both cases are different.
u/s. 12 of D.V. act filed by wife/women before Judicial Magistrate first class. and in this case against husband or his relative is/are accused. BAILABLE OFFENSE.
u/s. 13 of HMA filed by any both of husband / wife against each other. or mutual consent. in case both ready to divorce by mutual consent, then matter is disposed near about 6 months.

Yes u can file domestic violence and divorce case simultaneously, and in addition you can also file for alimony / maintenance from ur husband.

A divorce case will be procedured according to family law of ur religion / or special marriage act.

And Domestic Violence is under dv act.

And ur alimony case will be under crpc .
so u r free to file every case seperately.

Feel free to call / visit, at Mumbai / Pune.
